If you have a neat way of sewing up knitted toys, I’d be grateful to know about it. I’m okay with the knitting, but when it comes to sewing the pieces together I make a mess of things. Especially the teddy bear I knitted up recently.

I sew my limbs or head to the body by catching one stitch on the limb, and then catching one stitch on the body, sewing all the way round stitch by stitch. It is tricky, so patience is a virtue! I usually pin the pieces in place first to check I am happy with the position before sewing together.
